Elle est coquette! Bien fait...

 

Just a wonderful NEIPA.

 

Good Sunday morning BA's! It's a sunny 68 degrees here on our way to 84 today. I'm really enjoying a CBS while watching the Liège–Bastogne–Liège, 155 mile long cycling race from Belgium. It's a cool 8C degree morning there but dry so far. A couple crashes have split the favorites so there should be good action to come!

It is indeed a beautiful day, carpe diem lads.....

 

Congratulations on 1000!

 

Stone Delicious IPA



Attractive light gold color with white cap and some lacing.

Aroma is great. I like when I open a fresh brew and the hops jump out. This one gives off a clean, sharp, floral, citrusy, aroma with a bit of pine.

Taste is outstanding. It begins with a hefty malt presence accented by these vibrant hops. Everything is working well together here and build my admiration for things Stone generally. I can actually taste the floral, citrusy nature of the hops as they are being carried merrily along by the malt. Like a quarterback following a hole blasted through the line by a guard. All this goes to the finish with a lingering bitterness in the aftertaste that is muted but noticable.

Texture is a solid medium though some may consider it a bit fuller.

Overall Stone scores. Here again we're facing a brew that is decided hoppy but this pony has other tricks. The substantial malt body remains throughout and doesn't flag. Hops keep singing along in perfect pitch. A brew that's taken a few elements and created something more complex and greater than the sum of parts. Remarkable enough to comment on yet easy going enough to accompany a range of food dishes.

 

Good morning/day BAs! Some coffee to shake off this morning’s chill - FBS:



Bottled 2/21/24. Poured at 51°.

It’s 47° outside and the high is forecast to be an overcast 55° this afternoon. I’ll finish picking up and packing up. Cheers and have a sunny Sunday y’all!

 

It’s a Sunday morning volunteer shift at the Field Museum. Lord knows I need this.

 

Happy Sunday BAs! Thanks @belvedere86 for opening the bar with his scenic walk.
Nice sketch @Shanex.
